Posted By: Daveh Options for 3-15 / 4.5-18 scope - 07/16/19
Looking for another but different model scope in 3-15 or 4.5-18 range with 40-44mm objective and around 24-26oz. $400-700 budget

Already own the 3-15 SWFA, 4.5-18 LRTS, 3-15 Razor HD LH, 4.5-14 Conquest,

FFP would be good but not mandatory. Solid adjustments that I can trust are required.

I know I probably have most of the candidates but just checking.

PS - I am not a Vortex fan other than the model listed although I hear the PST II is a definite improvement.

Ideas for something I don't own???
Here's a few possibilities:

Meopta Meopro 4.5-14x44 starting at $449.99

Steiner P4xi 4-16x56 FFP for only $799.99

Bushnell 3-12x44 LRTS only $749.99

Hawke Frontier 30 FFP in 3-15x50 or 4-20x50

Athlon Midas TAC 4-16x44

If you've got a few moments please give us a call to discuss what might be best for you
Didn’t think this was that hard of a question....
Used conquest hd5 would fit the bill

That makes it hard. Or rather narrow.

Nightforce SHV F1 if you can do the weight.

SWFA SA that you have.

Bushnell LRHS/LRTS generally work as well.
Thanks guys.

Actually, I kinda figured I had most options in the >$1000 range but usually there is never a shortage of opinions....

I wish NF would do a 3-12x42 at 24oz......
PST Gen II 3-15x44 is a very nice scope and the adjustments seem quite reliable so far. Mine is the FFP version.

Maven RS1 2.5-15x44 is an interesting scope, but a bit above your budget.

Tract Toric 3-15x42 is probably related to the Razor HD LH. Nice scope.
What about the Zeiss V4 4-16x44. Can be had for $700??
I just took delivery of a Tract Tekoa 4x -16x closeout for $415. Quite impressed.

Excellent glass. Very clear. I have 2 I bought through Sportsman's Guide for price you mentioned.

The only thing I don't like is the plastic elevation turret. Probably never be an issue. Guess that was part of their way of being able to put that glass in that price range.

Here's one on a 6.8 SPC II in Seekins rings.
